Not sure what to say?

My deepest sympathy to you, Rose, and all of Royce's family and loved ones.

So sorry to hear this! My thoughts & prayers are with Rose & Shelly.

Rose, I am so sorry to hear about your loss.
Hugs, love and prayers.

Belatedly, heard of Royces passing. So sorry but know hes heavenward bound. Our condolences to Rose, Andy/Shelley and Bella. Royce was always the first to greet us with a smile and offer any help we might need. Fond memories. Peace be with you.

Royce can't be described in a few short words/sentences. He was absolutely one of most generous, loyal and caring people I have ever known. He was a faithful servant of the Lord and loved his family so much. There is nothing Royce wouldn't do for you in a time of need. All you had to do was speak the name "Royce" and he was there. He never complained about anything. I will miss him sooo much.

Saddened to learn of Royce's death. I enjoyed our friendship when I lived in Beaumont. Also remember Rose from when we worked at Lamar (Tech) University

Royce was one of the friendliest, nicest and finest people that I have ever known. He was one of the first people that I met when I first transferred to the Beaumont Plant in 1980. When there were plant social events he always talked to my wife and sons and myself. He had a genuine interest in others and always made us feel welcome. It's a shame that he had to leave us at such a young age. We think about him a lot, and even though we no longer live in the area will miss him.

So sorry to know Royce passed. He was a good guy. I worked with Royce at Goodyear and remember he loved to take pictures at Goodyear picnic; and I still have picture he took of me and my family. Peace be with you Rose

We are so sad to hear about Royces passing. Pat and I send our heartfelt condolences to all the family, especially Rose. Royce was a wonderful husband, father, and grandfather. He will be sorely missed! Sending our healing hugs and love to Rose.
